	<Blockquote>Tipping points occur when a positive feedback loop crosses a threshold that leads to large changes, that often can't be turned around or reversed.

			<Blockquote>The American Meteorological Society defines a feedback as a sequence of interactions determining the response of the system to an initial change. In the climate system, a feedback is a process that can work as part of a loop to either lessen or add to the effects of a change in one part of the system. When a process helps keep components of the system in balance, it sets up a negative, or balancing, feedback loop. When a change in one part of the system causes changes in the same direction in other parts of the Earth system, a positive, or reinforcing, feedback loop occurs.<Ref>https://scied.ucar.edu/learning-zone/earth-system/climate-system/feedback-loops-tipping-points</Ref></Blockquote>
